It has been almost eight months since the love of his life, Larkin, passed, and Ryan Boone has tried to make good on his promise to her to keep living. The letters she left behind had helped him tremendously, but all of a sudden, he felt like he was drowning and only she could save him. The only way he could think to reach out to her was to write her letters, just like she did to him. He never thought that she would actually get them; after all, she was gone. But when he sees her sitting on their private dune reading his letter, his grief would never be the same.

My blog tour for my new release, Ryan’s Letters, is not quite over yet, but the reviews have been pretty humbling so far, averaging 4.9/5 stars. Here is a brief synopsis of some of the amazing reviews:

“Jax Jillian wrote with heart. This book is a must read and even a reread. The first book, Larkin’s Letters, tore my heart out. This book builds your spirit.” — A Biblioromance

Ryan’s Letters is just as amazing as Larkin’s Letters was. It is just as eloquently written and just as beautifully tragic. READ THESE BOOKS, its all I can say, you won’t be sorry!” – Drue Hoffman, DRC Promotions

“Jillian writes a beautiful, well-written, very moving story. I highly encourage you to read this series. You will not be disappointed.” — Words Turn Me On

“Jax Jillian once again gripped my heart and squeezed. I said this after Larkin’s Letters, if you don’t cry when reading this book, then you have no humanity…no heart…no love…no compassion for life. I loved this one just as much as Larkin’s Letters.” — Lynn Barrett, Sassy Southern Book Affair

“This is an amazing book, so well thought out and written!” — Stormy Nights Reviewing

As Ryan Boone struggles to come to grips with not being able to keep a promise he made to his dying wife, Larkin’s Letters propels readers into the mind of Ryan as he struggles with frequent visits from her ghost and a series of letters she left behind.

Ryan has worked hard to become one of Hollywood’s most sought-after actors, but no matter how famous he became, he always remained loyal to his childhood best friend, Larkin James. When Larkin is diagnosed with leukemia, Ryan sacrifices his career to be by her side and in turn realizes how much he had always loved her. Throughout Larkin’s sickness, Ryan promised her he would never let her…

Beautiful review of Larkin’sLetters. I just love when I can reach a reader like this.

5 stars and lots of crying

I don’t really know how to review this book. Its was personal for me in the sense that I watched my 14 year old nephew diagnosed with Leukemia, fight for 3.5 years and come out on top. He has a love that stood by him the entire time he was fighting; his story has a happy ending. Soon to be 18 he is living his life to the fullest; beating the odds. So, on that note I will do my best to put what I felt while reading this into words for you.

This book will break you in every single way possible. I don’t know where this wonderful author found the words; if it was from a real story in their own life but the other part that will rip you before you even begin the story is that she dedicates her book to her baby son Ryan. Go ahead just start crying now.

So …. here goes … Larkin and Ryan were best friends since childhood. (Again just like my nephew and is love.) They never lost touch even taking different roads to their future. There was never a a time they weren’t checking in, making time or cherishing what their friendship meant. Finally that friendship turned into love.

As Leukemia does working its evil and poison unknowingly into your body, Larkin becomes ill. Life crumbles – again personally I know that feeling. I know how it feels to get that phone call. (Tears). Scared of the unknown and what fight lies ahead, Ryan sacrifices everything to be with Larkin and friendship becomes a love so deep that the heavens are enough to describe it.

From this point on you might as well just let your heart fall out of your chest. The letters … there are no words to describe them. None. The last two will crush you yet put you back together. This story should open your soul to something exquisite. Take your time with this book. Read the letters over and over until you absorb every word.

Just click it … that’s all I can say. Thank you Jax for sending this book; I can never repay you for something you gave me but had no idea you were giving. Thanks to Tracy (my girl – Ramblings From Beneath The Sheets) for giving me the honor of review this book for her wonderful blog.

Whenever I meet a fellow Tate Publishing author, I always want to be of any help and support towards their success as I can be. This lovely author, Judith Quate, pours out her heart and soul into her novel, Our Special Child: Jason’s Story. To allow yourself to be so vulnerable and let strangers into the most personal and intimate details of your life takes a lot of courage. Please take a closer look.

What would you do if suddenly you are presented with a diagnosis for your child of spastic quadriplegic cerebral palsy? Would you scream and run out of the room? Would you contemplate walking away from a reality you cannot accept and just run as far as you can; or would you do what this young mother did, accept the devastating news and figure out what you need to do to help your child.

Our Special Child: Jason’s Story is a story of a young boy who was inflicted with a severe disabling condition and his mother dedicated her life making sure he had the best services, the best doctors and learned how to advocate.

This is a heart-wrenching true story of a life full of emotional roller coasters and the love she feels for her son. She fills the book with passion that will tug at your heartstrings, causing you to either cry or laugh. You will feel and share her frustrations with each page you turn.
